1* Free Play Golden State Warriors.

We think this is going to be a competitive series, but we're expecting the Warriors to pull away down the stretch in Game 1 for a comfortable ATS victory. Golden State finally gets its shot at revenge after falling apart with a 3-1 lead in last year's Final (we had a play on the Cavaliers in Game 7 on the MONEY-LINE last season). This is the third straight time these teams have met in the Finals. Their strengths and weaknesses are well known to even the casual basketball fan. Both teams are stacked top to bottom with offensive and defensive talent. Each has a lot of experience and fantastic coaching staffs. Note that Cleveland is just 10-13 ATS this year in trying to revenge a loss against an opponent and only 13-15 ATS this season against good offensive teams that score 106-plus points per contest, while the Warriors are 23-13 ATS against good offensive teams which average over 106 points. Consider a second look at GOLDEN STATE in Game 1 of the 2017 NBA Finals.
